SharePoint and LightSwitch Support in ReSharper 7

The ReSharper team here at JetBrains has added support for SharePoint and LightSwitch projects to ReSharper 7. Due to how these project types handle generated partial classes, previous versions of ReSharper displayed errors even though the project compiled successfully. By implementing support for these project types in ReSharper 7, ReSharper no longer displays spurious errors allowing developers to be more productive when using these project types. To see the improvements in action, let’s look at a SharePoint project and a LightSwitch project using ReSharper 6.1 and ReSharper 7.

Notice that ReSharper 7 provides quick-fixes for unused parameters, superfluous “this” usage, and all the other great features you expect from ReSharper. The SharePoint and LightSwitch enhancements in ReSharper 7 work for both C# and VB.NET projects. SharePoint and LightSwitch developers can now develop with pleasure too!

We are having the same problem as eddi. We definitely have the release of Visual Studio Update 2, and Resharper 7.1.3. It makes developing Lightswitch 2012 with resharper on nearly impossible. It seems to be the partial methods generated in /GeneratedArtifiacts that it’s mostly having a problem with. Because this folder isn’t part of the solution, I can’t add it to the list of generated objects in resharper options either.
